Despite this page takes the name of this peak, I haven't climbed Široká veža, to where no trail is going. But, since this circuit is circumventing it, going twice through high saddles adjacent to it - and since no top is reached during that day - I thought Široká veža was the most appropriate name for the first part of this long two-days hike.
We are right in the middle of the indian summer, the weather is perfect, the conditions too... Time has come to undertake this trek on which I have fantasms since a long time... since our trek of 2004, more precisely, when the injured leg of my girlfirend didn't allow exploring all these high areas, quite sporty.

Cette moitié là de la vallée est beaucoup plus impressionnante que l'autre (que j'avais empruntée en 2004, en prenant le même départ qu'aujoud'hui), et laisse déjà entrevoir des pics de toute beauté.This half of the valley is much more impressive than its second half (which I took in 2004, taking the same start as today), and let already appear some peaks of all beauty.

Le fond de la vallée se dessine et laisse deviner un virage abrupt à gauche, au pied de ce formidable rempart.The end of this valley is getting more precise while announcing a sharp turn on the left, on the foot of this huge wall..
Vue en arrière, juste avant d'attaquer l'ascension, et durant l'ascension, de nouveau au soleil, nouvelle vue arrière. Je n'ai pas pris de photo étant dans l'ombre durant tout ce temps.View backwards, just before starting the climb, and during the ascent, again in the sun, new view backwards. I haven't taken a photo as I was in the shaddow meantime.
A hauteur des cimes, les pics de granite noir offrent un contraste saisissant entre le ciel pur de l'été indien, et le reflet lumineux de l'herbe roussie par la saison. A droite, Ladové Stit, 3ème plus haut pic des Tatras, mais certainement le plus massif et impressionnant d'entre eux. Je le comparerai sans hésiter aux 3000 Pyrénéens les plus redoutables.Almost at the level of the tops, the black granite peaks show a stunning contrast between the pure blue sky of this indian summer, and the luminous reflecion of the reddish grass during this season. On the right, Ladové Stit, 3rd highest peak in the Tatras, but certainly the most massive of them. I would compare it without hesitation to the most challenging 3000s of the Pyrenees.
